Vanessa

Album by Samuel Barber

Vanessa is an opera by American composer Samuel Barber, first performed in 1958. The score is lyrical and richly orchestrated in a mid-twentieth-century tonal style that uses late Romantic harmony and American song tradition, and the work came at a mature point in Barber's output as his principal stage work.
